URGENT! Parts of a Newspaper?

Question

Can you give me a site where the labeling of the different parts of a newspaper can be found? One example of the parts is the headline. Another are the ears.

Answer 1

Parts of a newspaper are:
(1)HEADLINE--What the story is about ; intended to grab your attention. BANNER headlines (such as "WAR DECLARED") span the top of the newspaper's front page, and in big, bold print, under the name of the paper,
(2)DATELINE--gives the day of the week, and date the story was written, and sometimes where it was written (ex: "Sunday, July 29,2007-NYC").
(3)NEWS ARTICLE--Story of a recent event
(4) FEATURE ARTICLE--A more detailed account of a particular story (ex: war correspondents would have feature articles about a certain battle).
(5)EDITOR--Person who runs or manages the newspaper.
(6)EDITORIAL--Stories or opinions of events written by the editor or his/her staff.
(7) ARTICLE TYPES--Include news, features, sports, weather,editorials, etc.
(8) ALL ARTICLES NEED--the 5 W's and H (WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY, & HOW). This is the first thing pounded into a Journalism student's head--you do not forget ANY of them or your story is incomplete.


I don't know what you are referring to when you say "the ears" because, as a former Journalism student/college newspaper associate editor and copy editor, I never heard of it. Sometimes, if an article is especially good, the editor or publisher will give the reporter a "BY-LINE"--which simply means the article was so well written that the editor/publisher felt the public should know who wrote the story (ex--"War Over, Troops Come Home" by John Doe).
Journalism students should keep a file of their printed articles and measure their "column inches"--done by measuring the length of the story down one column and multiplying by how many columns wide it is (3 inches long in one column x 3 columns wide =9 column inches). The more you have at the end of the semester or year, the better grade you get. :) Also keep track of your "by-lines". Last by not least, to show the printer that the story is finished ALWAYS put "30" (publishing slang for finished) or "end" after your last sentence, centered on the page.

Answer 2

First page is usually world or political events. Second page is local to your state or city. Third page is usually sports, and if your paper has it, the last page is cultural, entertainment type news. Sometimes the paper has ads and classified after that, but that is the paper. The first page/section has more to do with world wide events and national politics relating to world events, like the Iraq war, etc. The second sections has more to do with local state or city politics and affairs, like opinions, obituaries, state doings. The third is almost always sports and has local teams first, then major things like next week is the super bowl :-( Hope this helped
